Last but not least, Tremezzo. Have you ever been to a place that makes you lose track of time? Well, Villa Carlottawill amaze you with its botanic garden! Especially during the spring, the fragrances and the colors are irresistible! Be sure not to forget to visit the Grand Hotel Tremezzo, one of the few five-star hotels on Lake Como: its floating pool located on the lake is one of a kind!
